Franken-Bourbon & Fatherhood: Competitions, Combat, and Coming Back


Listen Later

Episode 13 is a full-on grab bag in the best way: dance-dad life after a marathon competition weekend, a surprisingly deep detour into what defeat does to your head (and how you climb back out), and an Am I The Asshole? story that turns into every bourbon lover’s nightmare.


What’s in the Glass: Garrison Brothers Small Batch (Texas Straight Bourbon) and Henry McKenna 10-Year Single Barrel Bottled-in-Bond—ratings, notes, and why one of them might be an everyday pour.

Then we recap the competition grind, the studio “dance family” vibe, and why showing up loud matters.

We also talk UFC mindset, mental fortitude, and the post-loss dark places—plus the reminder: if you or someone you know needs help, dial/text 988.

And finally: Franken-Bourbon—roommate’s kid + stolen bottles + “topping off” with cola/sweet tea/water… then the mom wants the bourbon removed from the house. Yeah. We go there.


🥃 Two mics. One vibe. No filters. Cheers.
